'''Broozers''' are boxing ghosts that first appear in ''[[New Super Mario Bros.]]'' "Broozer" is derived from the words "bruiser" and "boo". They are humanoids wearing a grey sheet over their body, brown shoes, and deep-red boxing gloves. In ''New Super Mario Bros.'', they have angry yellow-orange eyes with [[Boo]]-like smiles containing sharp teeth, but in every later appearance, the eyes are sunken with a green hue, and the smiles become angry scowls, bearing much larger teeth. They make sharp hissing noises as they attack - either made by them or the tailwind of their punches.
'''Broozers''' are boxing ghosts that first appear in ''[[New Super Mario Bros.]]'' Their name is a homophonic pun on "bruiser" and "boo". They are humanoids wearing a grayish-purple sheet over their body, brown shoes, and deep-red boxing gloves. In ''New Super Mario Bros.'', they have angry yellow-orange eyes with [[Boo]]-like smiles containing sharp teeth, but in every later appearance, the eyes are sunken with a green hue, and the smiles become angry scowls, bearing much larger teeth.

In ''[[New Super Mario Bros. Wii]]'', they appear in {{world-link|7|ghost|World 7-Ghost House (New Super Mario Bros. Wii)}}. They have the same function as they did in the original ''New Super Mario Bros.'', except this time, in addition to breaking bricks, they can knock over [[barrel]]s and cause them to roll down stairs. They are imperative to finding a shortcut to [[World 7-5 (New Super Mario Bros. Wii)|World 7-5]], as Mario must lure one to bust open a hidden, unseen door so he can take the secret exit and unlock the level. Although they can be frozen by [[Ice Mario]], Broozers cannot be picked up afterwards.

A Broozer's main attack is to stand in front of its target and punch them, which knocks them off-screen and unable to act (or be targeted by attacks or items) for several turns. Normally the Broozer punches immediately upon moving into position, but it can also do a fake-out and pull its punch; if its target jumps too early, its delayed punch always hits. The player can tell when a fake is coming because the Broozer swings its arm up and down as it approaches, instead of the regular arm spin. For either punch timing, the target can jump to dodge and counter.
